A photograph of a seated figure in a golden throne-like chair at a crowded outdoor ritual, hands pressed together in namaste with eyes closed. The seated person wears an orange-saffron turban, a bare-chested orange-red cloth draped over the body, a gold necklace and a rudraksha mala. Beside him a man in a pink silk dhoti and shawl with gold border leans forward, bending to touch the seated person's foot. Behind them stand people in orange and saffron garments and white clothing, some holding phones, with a golden ornate canopy above. The seated figure's distinctive turban, gold ornaments and saffron attire are visible, while the appearance match remains uncertain.
